History

  • MTV Norway launched in September 2005 along with
    MTV Europe
    feed.
  • MTV Norway's offices are based at
    MTV Networks Europe
    headquarters in London and Warsaw.
  • During the days of MTV Nordic, languages other than English were rarely spoken on MTV in Norway. With the start of MTV Norway, several Norwegian speaking programmes were produced for example MTV News.
  • Since the mid-2000s MTV Norway shares a similar schedule to its other European counterparts featuring mainly reality based content from
    MTV US
    and very few music videos.
  • Since 2009, MTV Norway's localized content has been reduced this is seen both on-air and on-line. Its website mtv.no is entirely in English where previously it was available in Norwegian. All programming is in English with Norwegian subtitles, with exception to local produced programming and local advertising.
  • On February 22, 2019, the local MTV channels for the Nordic region were replaced by the relaunch of
    MTV Nordic which features no advertising or sponsorships.[2]
    Despite this, separate websites still exist for the local languages.
